The ...

In chemical process stabilizing agents like cement, lime, flyash, saw dust ash etc are added to subgrade soil to impart properties like bearing capacities, CBR and strength of soil etc.

Additionally, soil subgrade can be stabilized by mixing a number of pozzolanic and industrial substances, such as cement, bentonite, calcium or sodium chloride, fly ash, lime, and others with ...

The process of cementation and the results of soil–cement and lime stabilization are similar, they used in quantities too small to provide high-strength cementing action. They reduce the plasticity of clay soils. ... Little DN, Nair S (2009) Recommended practice for stabilization of subgrade soils and base materials. National cooperative ...

Soft to medium clay soil possesses major sources of damages to the pavement layers overlying them because of their potential failure under moisture changes and external heavy traffic load. In such situations, soil …

Extensive research has been conducted on soil stabilization, exploring the use of different additives. In pavement construction, cement and lime stabilization are the commonly employed methods for stabilizing clay soils. While cement and lime stabilization can yield high strengths, there are instances where such strength levels may not be ...

Abdullah, et al. [8], studied the effect of soil stabilization on subgrade soil using cement, lime and fly ash. A study was conducted to enhance the characteristics of a sample subgrade soil by ...

Lime can substantially increase the stability, impermeability, and load-bearing capacity of the subgrade. Both quicklime and hydrated lime may be used for this purpose. Application of lime …

Cement or lime can be added to the soil to stabilize it. These stabilization techniques enhance the soil's varied technical qualities, producing a better building material. The advantage of soil stabilization is an increase in soil strength, durability, stiffness, and a decrease in soil plasticity and possible swelling/shrinking [85].

The engineering properties of stabilized Chokocho subgrade soil were also evaluated, and the use of cement and lime as stabilizers was found to be effective in improving soil characteristics for ...

Successful application is often achieved with fine grained, plastic soils, by first applying lime or cement to reduce plasticity and improve workability of the soil and then adding the fly ash to boost strength of the soil, lime blend.

2. STABILIZATION WITH LIME. In general, all lime treated fine-grained soils exhibit decreased plasticity, improved workability and reduced volumechange characteristics. However, not all soils exhibit improved strength characteristics. It should be emphasized that the properties of soillimemixtures are dependent on many variables. Soil type, lime

Benefits of Soil Stabilization. Lime substantially increases soil resilient modulus values (by a factor of 10 or more in many cases). ... To illustrate, stabilizing an 8-inch native clay subgrade with lime as part of an asphalt pavement project can reduce 30-year life cycle costs from $24.49 to $22.47 per square yard.

Types of soil stabilization include cementitious (using cement or lime) and bituminous stabilization (using ed bitumen or emulsion) [4, 5]. Supplementary cementitious materials such as the use of fly ash, a pozzolanic material mixed with lime are also used to stabilise soils [ 5, 6 ].

In summary, treating weak paved subgrade soil with an organosilane-based nano-chemical at a dosage of 0.045% of the weight of clay soil along with 1% cement content is the best combination to achieve higher CBR strength.

Subgrades (or Subbases): Lime can permanently stabilize fine-grained soil employed as a subgrade or subbase to create a layer with structural value in the pavement system. The …

This recommended practice also addresses the basic mechanism(s) of stabilization when using lime, Portland cement and fly ash; soil exploration and sampling techniques; guidelines and …

Similarly, the injection of CO2 into cement-stabilized subgrade soil increased the peak strain (i.e., strain at maximum UCS), ... (SO4)0.12H 2 O) present a significant challenge in the context of soil stabilization using cement and lime. An illustrative example is the experience of approximately 120 mm vertical displacement in two access ...

1.5 Advantages of Cement Stabilization a) It is widely available. b) Cost is relatively low. c) It is highly durable. d) Soil cement is quite weather resistant and strong. e) Granular soils with sufficient fines are ideally suited for cement stabilization as it requires least amount of cement. f) Soil cement reduces the swelling characteristics ...

This paper investigates the effect of subgrade soil stabilization on the performance and life extension of flexible pavements. Several variables affecting soil stabilization were considered, including subgrade soil type (CL or CH), additive type and content (3, 6, and 9% of hydrated lime, 5, 10, and 15% of class C fly ash (CFA), and 5, 10, and 15% of cement kiln …

The use of cement and lime in soil stabilization is an effective method for enhancing the strength and durability of weak soils, as shown by the reduction in plastic limit values observed in the stabilized soil samples. The appropriate content of cement and lime to use in soil stabilization could inform standards and codes for soil stabilization.
